Vitali Klitschko vs George Foreman

[Sparked_1985]

I guess it's romantic to have the old-timers ahead of the Klitschko's. But when I was thinking about it logically - I have Vitali having a great shot against everyone throughout the history of Heavyweight boxing. Am I the only one?

George Foreman both young and old struggled against taller fighters and fighters who could move. Vitali would take him apart, surely? What say you?

Vitali is a lumering be****th who has never beaten a fighter who could be rated above Class D.. Vitali is so bad when i watch him that i sit laughing at him and i cannot think of any heavyweight champion (undisputed) in history who would struggle to beat him, i see him as being no better than Carnera or Willard who themselves was "lumbering-behemoths".. Foreman would completely destroy Vitali within 3rds.

Vitali doesn't really use the type of style to trouble Foreman. He uses his size advantage to lean back and around punches and his strength also enables him to keep opponents at bay while he keeps pot shotting his way to win rounds. Foreman will take away any strength advantage since the guy had freakish strength, and he also has a long reach so he would not be towered by Klitschko. To be honest I think he would get stopped early.

Young pre-surgery Vitaly, KO's Foreman in 6. Today's version of Vitaly, TKO 10.

I actually like Vitali Klitschko, but lets be serious, he is not going to beat George Foreman. Vitali is not going to keep Foreman at a distance and be effective Foreman has a 2 inch reach advantage and is freakishly strong, people tend to forget how freakishly strong Foreman actually was, Vitali has never seen anything like him. I just can't see how Vitali can be effective against George and i see George wnnng by stoppage around the 6th round.

When did Foreman struggle against Taller fighters? I can only think of one guy who was taller than him by any real margin and that was 6'6 Cooney who he Koed with ease. Foreman is listed as 6'3 1/2 in his young years and 6'4 in his come back. His reach is 82.

vitali is stronger than Cooney but a prime George would surely be able to deal with Vitali.

Honestly I don't see what everyone else seems to see in Vitali, he lost to the 2 best boxers he faced one of them that was well past prime and fat, I don't see how that can somehow lead to him having a chance against anyone in History, I just don't.

I know right ?, his performance against an old shot Briggs (Who wasn't that good in his prime anyway) definitely shows that he would be able to beat any live and prime ATG opponent.
